From: Maurizio Cirilli Date: 2010-10-27T01:05:12+09:00 Subject: Re: Extraction of single subarrays from multidimensional array Thank you all for the very very instructive replies- I have the very last question: how to make this iteration through splat operator general i.e. flexible covering cases in which the number of subarrays (a,b,c) in the above example is unknown? I mean, the splatter operator, doing iteration automatically, does not return any count on the columns of the ss input m-array so how to know how many variables to put on the left side of the assignment a, b, c = *ss ? Maybe such question is trivial but not for me: I spent several hours thinking about that and still I have no clue how to do that (the hard life of the beginners!!) :-) Thanks again. - Maurizio
